- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- Swelling of the lids and redness of the conjunctiva and iris was observed one hour after application. A clear discharge was also observed. These symptoms were reduced at 24 hours and dissappeared by 48 hours. The table below summarizes the symptoms observed.
The test substance is not considered irritating according to the criteria.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Conclusions:
- The test substance is not considered irritating according to the criteria.
- Executive summary:
Eye irritation was tested in a guideline study according to OECD guideline 405 in rabbits. The substance caused swelling of the lids and redness of the conjunctiva and iris one hour after application in the eyes. The mean score for three animals on day 1, 2 and 3 for chemosis and redness of the conjunctiva was 0.2 and 0.7, respectively. These symptoms were fully reversible by 48 hours.
The test substance is not considered irritating according to the criteria of this guideline.
